Pavement to side of 15 Meavy Close
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7830671.
15 Meavy Close has a very large hedge which always overgrows onto the pavement causing pedestrians to have to walk in the road which is more dangerous as it is just around a bend as well. This is the case now once again.
